Well now you fools will never know about the truck in question.
Sorry to have insulted you and your **** "knowledge" of Fords.
A Mustang with a Ford installed leather interior DOES exist, and so do two with a Ford installed IRS. Look it up. And I OWNED a 69 Mustang GT. Now I know gt's were tape stripe hotrods by then, but that car did exist. And it was a piece of Chit. 60,000 miles and it was shot, rusted out, motor smoked, suspension falling apart, wiring issues, seat back just fell down once. You know about that recall, don't you? After that it pretty much just sat out behind the garage. Which kept it from killing people. That was the right thing to do. It went to the crusher after that, which was a long time ago. What a pile.
What the hell does my age have to do with my knowledge? I wasn't around during the Civil War, but I have a pretty good working knowledge of what went on. Does your knowledge base stop at the date of your birth? Mine doesn't. That is one stupid point you made.
You fools are unbelievable. Most of these websites have at least one of you arrogant know-it-alls, but THREE!! I'm outa here.
I can do better without you. And I didn't read the other two jackasses posts. Useless.

Well now you fools will never know about the truck in question. BFD! A 1967/72 F100 that someone stuck F150 badges on. The frame was boxed by a previous owner. You say a boxed frame isn't something someone could do? Look at Model A's, T's, 1932/48 Fords. 1000's of these frames were boxed by hot rodders, customizers. Ford never offered a boxed frame for any of these cars.
Sorry to have insulted you and your **** "knowledge" of Fords.
A Mustang with a Ford installed leather interior DOES exist How do you know it was factory installed, unless you saw the car when it was brand new with "leather" listed on the options list on the window sticker?
I went thru every Mustang upholstery list from 1965 thru 1970, no leather was offered. I have all the Mustang accessory brochures from 1965 thru 1970, no leather was offered.
and so do two with a Ford installed IRS. Look it up. I did, I even looked at some of the special road race Mustangs that Ford supplied to driver teams back then = NO IRS. And I OWNED a 69 Mustang GT. The only one on the planet, as there are no emblems, no parts catalog refs, no sales or accessory brochures that mention a '69 Mustang GT.
1965/73: There are no factory stripes that have 'Mustang GT' on them.
1969 Mustang stripes: MACH 1 / BOSS 302 / BOSS 351. 1969 Shelby stripes: GT350 / GT500.

What the hell does my age have to do with my knowledge? The only way you could have seen any of these rarities was when they were brand new unsold cars. How many 8 year old kids went to dealers and read options lists? If you saw any of these cars after they were sold, there is no way you can prove they were factory.
I wasn't around during the Civil War, but I have a pretty good working knowledge of what went on. Does your knowledge base stop at the date of your birth? Mine doesn't. Name one printed reference you have or have seen someplace that lists these rare cars.

"I saw it with my own eyes" doesn't prove anything, as it's heresay. Name one printed reference that shows these rarities.
The fact that you claim to have owned one years later proves nothing either.

Vinnie's "cousin" was driving a Buick Skylark.
The perps were driving a 1961/63 Pontiac Tempest.
These Pontiac Tempests had I.R.S., flexible "rope" type driveshaft with torque tube drive, rear transaxle and a 4 banger engine.
Mustang I.R.S: Ford built many experimental and autoshow circuit cars, but the facts are, no one could go to a dealer and buy any Mustang with I.R.S.
Prolly the most famous autoshow circuit car ever made by FoMoCo is the 1955 Lincoln Futura "Dream Car."
George Barris acquired this car in the early 1960's, parked it out in front of his North Hollywood shop on the grass parkway.
I used to drive by his shop on weekends...there it sat on 4 flat tires, rusting away. That is...till Hollywood came calling.
Barris removed the Plexi-Glass dual canopy roof, added a bunch of gee-gaws, painted it in several colors, but...the rest of the car is pure 1955 Lincoln Futura.
Y'all know this car today as the Batmobile used in the 1966/68 TV show.

Had the OP taken a different tone in his posts,myself and others wouldnt have fired the shots that we did. The OP presented no facts,whatsoever,just rumors and unsubstantiated claims of all sorts of random Ford oddities,and when he was told that some of these did not exist,he went on a rant about his particular mustang,and told us all about how bad it was.....WE criticized him,and his response was to attack Ford,for this horrible car? HUHHH?

For the record and this is no apology, because you jackasses don't deserve one, I think it's a rebodied early Bronco, and someone put F150 badges on it. If it is, oh well. If it isn't, you'll never know.
You thicks still don't get it that there were vehicles made that weren't in your "bible", a.k.a, the all knowing production charts.
And for the record, it isn't hearsay when I say I had one. Hearsay is when I say I heard someone else say they had one.
Get enlightened beyond your deadly dull production statistics.
I am smarter than you juvenile buttheads.
